Rating: 8.5/10

All fans of progressive metal, bow to the new masters of the genre, who come from England and "Reality Dysfunction", is their debut album. Of course don't expect to hear the same typical progressive elements here. Of course Linear Sphere play progressive metal, but in the entire album they also have many influences from other kinds of music, like jazz and fusion.

Maybe that's why the vocals are so "weird" and we can hear a variety of clean and extreme ones, with a lot of distortion. This is fine with me, since we have diversity in the section of vocals. As a band that respects itself, you can see that it has only seven songs, but after the intro the smallest one is ten minutes and their little giant is the track which closes this incredible album "From Space to time", which is more or less 20 minutes long.

For sure, Linear Sphere, knows very well to play and to compose really interesting music. I must add, that the stuff from Linear Sphere, isn't the easiest music to hear, but if you give this album, a little bit more attention you will find some really nice well hidden treasures. The fans of Dream Theater and Pain of Salvation, will love this album.

I believe that soon, the guys will also find a record label in order to help them spread their music to the whole world, because they deserve it. Don't make the mistake not buy or just hear this album, because you will lose.
